Quotes about wintertime
1. To deny that there was this dark side of life would be like pretending that the cold of winter was somehow only a temporary illusion, a way station on the way to the higher "reality"of long, warm, pleasant summers. But summer, it turned out, was no more real than the snow that melted in wintertime.
